Agent actions are discarded between cycles

In SimSpark, when sending no joint effector message, the previous action of the joint keeps active. To reduce network overhead, we implemented in our agent code that if the effector value doesn't change for a joint, it will suppress sending the same value again.

When looking into the Robocup3dsPlugin class, I found a call to clear the map of effectors after they are applied (line 422). When removing this line, our agent moves more like we expect. Is there a reason why the map of effectors is cleared in each cycle?

• changed state from "new" to "resolved"

Don't clear the effector map each cycle, fixes #32
